Ratings and reviews

Probably one of the best writers tools out there. Provides (plenty) of reminders for any of your projects, makes you think about things you hadn't even considered for your character, and the developers simply know what tools you need and give them to you. I am talking about the mobile version (web version restricted unless you get premium) but honestly, if I had the money readily available, I'd get premium no joke. An incredible writing platform.

By far one of the most in depth and versatile sources I have used to organize stories. I've searched for years for this with half of the organizational properties of Foretelling, and I'm frankly surprised by the amount of free features. None of the things behind a paywall inhibit you from using the app to its full potential which is honestly the best part. I can soundly say that the default fields given have pleasantly surprised me, some things I genuinely wouldn't have thought of on my own.

I'm not exactly sure what was going on with the app when I first downloaded it but the problem seemed to have fixed itself. Now that I'm able to access the app and properly use it, it's very helpful. You're able to put as much detail into your story and characters as you want with almost no character limits while typing. You're able to upload images of both your characters and their story, create species guidelines, religions, cultures, etc. Overall a really good tool for world building!
